บท 15: Chapter 15: The Richest Family.
"Their fame is really skyrocketing ever since they appeared on TV, huh?" James said as he stood next to Morris and Travis.
Everyone was gathered in the temporary White House and they were waiting to get a medal of honor from Richard for their achievement. None of them felt like they deserved it because they only did so little compared to Mykel and his team.
"We got our moments, and this time it's their turn, I guess?" Morris said as he fixed his glasses. "Although, I think this is just the beginning of their reign because what they have achieved is incomparable with ours. They still have a long way and their fame will keep raising as the time goes," Morris explained.
"I hate to agree, but if we want to stay relevant, we should keep a good relationship with them," Travis said with his arms crossed. "I know that I hate most of them, but that Mykel guy is really a good leader, too good to be true that it terrify me when they all listened to every word he said," Travis looked at Mykel and got a pin from Richard.
Mykel shook Richard's hand, and he could tell how happy Richard was. He listened to Richard's praises and how indebted he and the people of America were for what he did.
"There's something that I would like to discuss with you, Mister President. That's if you have time," Mykel said.
"We can talk after this. I'll send my secretary to pick you up later," Richard said and nodded his head in agreement.
Mykel nodded and left the stage with the others as the eyes were focusing on him. He looked at each one of them and tried to remember the faces of the important people. He walked down next to Lyneth and whispered to her about those people because he had a task for her to get more connection with those people.
After the ceremony was over, Russel approached Mykel and told him to meet with Richard in his office. Mykel left the afterparty and let the others enjoy the moment before they depart for Washington DC tomorrow.
Mykel entered the most secure place in the United States, and he entered the office which was the exact copy of the office in the real White House that he always saw on TV. He then sat down at Richard's desk as Richard was on the phone and talking with someone that appeared to be the King of the United Kingdom.
"I apologize for that. Let's get down to business," Richard said after he hung up the phone and cleared his throat.
"I should be the one to apologize to bother you, Mister President," Mykel smiled as he fixed his suit.
"Please, just call me Richard, Mister Mykel," Richard said as he laughed. "So, what do you need to discuss with me? Is this perhaps about your objective to get the capital city?" Richard asked as he fixed his seating.
"Yes, and I'm planning to go there tomorrow early in the morning. After what we saw back there in Montana,. That circle with symbols inside, that's something that we should be worried about, and I think it was a mistake to kill it," Mykel said and acted like he was worried about it.
Richard nodded his head in agreement as he rubbed his chin because even though he was no expert, he could tell that demons and circles with symbols were a bad sign.
"So, you're going to leave tomorrow? Do you want to go straight to Washington DC or are you going to travel by car?" Richard asked.
"We are going to travel by car. It's better this way because we want to raise our level as well. It's also good for those who want to move because we will clear the area for them," Mykel answered.
"I see, we can expand our territory that way," Richard nodded in agreement. "Oh, speaking of demons. I have something to tell you and to be exact, I need your approval on this," Richard said as he leaned forward and put his hands on the desk.
Mykel tilted his head and furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at Richard with a curious look.
"The demons that you killed, we have collected at least fifty percent of it, and we can only pay you the same amount as how we usually bought from the four guilds. We have calculated that we can only pay you one billion dollars," Richard explained. "But, there's someone who's interested to buy them all, including the ones that haven't been extracted three times the original price," Richard continued.
"And who that might be?" Mykel asked.
"The Redshield family. You might know that name, they're the richest family on Earth," Richard said as he looked at Mykel with a serious look. "They want to buy all of them, but I said that it depends on you whether you want to sell it to them or not," Richard continued.
Mykel was surprised when he heard about the Redshield family, and not to mention that they were interested in them was really a good opportunity for him. The Redshield family was the richest family because they owned the bank, mines, media, energy, and other business that kept them richer.
The Redshield family could be the most mysterious and famous family that had existed on Earth. Their wealth couldn't be drained no matter how much money they spent, and the fact they were not really famous to ordinary people, was really suspicious. They were more like a cult rather than a normal family because almost all the strings of every business and event would somehow lead back to them.
"I don't mind selling those to them, but I want them to come in person to see me," Mykel said.
"That would be hard because they're currently in the United Kingdom," Richard
Richard didn't look okay about Mykel wanting to meet them in person. That alone was enough for Mykel to tell that there was something more about that family than it looked.
"Well, if they want to do business, it's better to meet me in person. I don't care if they paid ten times the prize if they don't see me in person," Mykel said.
"You don't want to mess with them, Mister Mykel. They're more powerful than you think. The King even has to show respect to them, and this comes from a man who has seen it with his own two eyes," Richard said and he sounded so serious. "I suggest you to not take it lightly," Richard warned.
"Well, let me be the one who worried about that, Mister Richard. Money isn't everything in this kind of world we are living right now, strength is," Mykel answered with a smile.
Richard looked at Mykel and there was something that made him different from James and the others. Mykel had the aura of an elite soldier who was addicted to adrenaline, or what the people called a war junkie. A man who would love to see the world burn to satisfy their urge or need, but at the same time, Richard thought that he needed someone like that.
"(A man that could change the world order, a man that can put our country to be the strongest country in the world)" Richard thought.
"I'll see what I can do," Richard said as he tried to see what kind of a reply Mykel would make.
"You're a man with ambition and an opportunist. I can see it in your eyes, and we have similar goals, so why don't we work together and see how far we can go?" Mykel asked with his eyebrows raised. "We can see the possibility from this, and I hope you're thinking the same as me," Mykel continued.
Richard stood up with a big smile on his face, and then he offered his hand for a handshake. Mykel immediately shook his hand and managed to get Richard in his pocket which was the best thing he could ever get at the moment.
"Once I took back Washington DC, let's talk business afterward. For now, make that Redshield family on hold, and show them who's the boss now," Mykel said with a smirk.
"That won't be a problem, Mister Mykel," Richard smiled and nodded his head with understanding.
บท 16: Chapter 16: Anomaly.
"Why are you not joining us? There are enough demons for all of us," Aurea asked as she looked at Mykel who was sitting on the hood of the car while smoking his cigarette.
"I'm not in the mood, you guys can take all of them for yourself," Mykel said as he looked at Aurea.
Aurea shrugged her mouth and then walked away to deal with the demons that were swarming in the city.
Mykel looked at the map on his phone to check the location he was in. He was still in Chicago and the sun was already down, and he was still halfway from Washington DC. He could have just gone straight there, but the fact that a whole division of an army followed him, they had to take it slowly.
Lyneth, Edith, and Enma stayed in Nebraska because they had a more important task than killing demons. They were making connections to important people that Mykel said to Lyneth last night during the ceremony.
"Mister Mykel, we have checked the other areas, and we captured dozens of demons. What do you want us to do? Should we go there and deal with it?" A man in a military suit with a hat that covered his hair. He was the major that led the division and was responsible for the mission.
"If you think you can't deal with them on your own, bring Nagy and Lillith with you. They will handle the big guys for you," Mykel said as he jumped down from the hood.
The major nodded and immediately left to ask Nagy and Lillith for help.
The night was long, and nobody could sleep because of the screeches and the growls of the demons that scared the soldiers. Although it was really scary for them, they felt safe because Gunnar and the boys were dealing with the demons until the morning.
Mykel was outside and drinking his cold drink because the summer was really hot. The reason why he was outside was that the major was informed that there was an anomaly. He was waiting until the major finished talking with the general on the phone, so he could know what it was all about.
"Mister Mykel, can you come with me for a second?" The major asked as he pointed at the humvee that was parked in the street.
Mykel looked at the Humvee and saw the laptops in the backseat. The major grabbed one of them and showed it to Mykel.
"This just appeared last night, and we have no idea what it is, but this looks like a giant door," The major said.
A photo of a giant door that was captured by the satellite, and the weirdest part was the door was floating above the ground. Mykel never made something like that, and there was nothing like floating doors in the game he designed. He was curious about it and what was behind that door.
"Where is this taken from?" Mykel asked.
"Near the Ozark mountain in Arkansas, and this door was glowing bright like a lamp at night based on the information that we got. The President is asking us to go and check it out because we don't have any more resources to go out there," The major explained and looked at Mykel with a worried expression.
"It's going to take a while to go there by car," Mykel pointed out.
"We are not going there with a car, a chopper is on their way here and we can arrive there in just a few hours," The major answered.
"Then I'll bring some of my team with me while the rest stay here and maintain the territory," Mykel nodded with understanding and walked away.
It took them six hours to get to Ozark, and they saw the giant door that Mykel saw in the photo. The door was twenty meters wide and fifty meters tall. Mykel, Jeanne, Aurea, and Elena were confused and curious at the same time about the door because it was the first time they saw it.
"Let's get down there," Elena said.
"You guys can go ahead," Mykel said.
Elena, Jeanne, and Aurea looked at each other for a moment, but then they jumped down from the helicopter which was a hundred meters high from the ground. They landed and broke the ground, but they were fine since they got even stronger than last time.
"Have you guys noticed that something is off about Mykel?" Aurea asked.
"He has been off for quite a while, but this time he's really showing it off," Jeanne answered and looked at the chopper that was slowly descending into the empty space. "Elena, did he say anything to you?" Jeanne asked.
"No, and I'm not going to ask," Elena answered as she walked toward the door. "My father is someone who likes to keep things to himself, and there's no need to think about it unless he tells you about it," Elena explained.
Mykel got out of the chopper and approached the door from top to bottom. He noticed the door was floating and stayed still like it was frozen, but then he noticed the symbols around the door's frame. He didn't know what language it was, but that should mean something and might be the answer to this anomaly.
"Hold on a minute, I know this language," One of the soldiers said as he approached the door. "It's a language that a Native American used, I have seen them on a history channel, but I can't read them," he continued.
"Native American..." Mykel said under his breath as he looked at the door with a confused look.
"Take photos of the door, and make sure that every symbol or word on the frame is readable and visible. We are going to send the photos back and hope there's someone who can translate it for us," The major said as he looked at the door.
Elena, Jeanne, and Aurea looked at Mykel, but he shook his head, telling them that he knew nothing about it.
"They have translated it, the words!" The major said as he walked toward Mykel.
Mykel looked at the photos with the translation next to them, and he read it out loud.
"This door is destined for those who believe in our land of everlasting happiness. Those who believe in us will be rewarded with our blessing by entering this door. Those who don't believe in us will be punished if they enter this door. The Great Spirits await your arrival," Mykel said.
Everyone looked at each other with confused looks, but then Mykel walked toward the door and stared at it for quite a while.
"This door can only be entered by those who believe in the Native American Gods which are the Great Spirits. Those who don't believe in them, they would be punished when they get through this door. This is what they called a sponsor, or perhaps it's something else," Mykel pointed out with his arms crossed. "This is really interesting because if this appears, then there will be other doors like this out there around the world," Mykel continued.
"You're saying is that this door is like a connection between the God realms and ours? If the Native American Gods are behind this door, does that mean the Greek Gods, the Norse Gods, and also the Egyptian Gods have something like this in their own country?" Elena asked as she looked at Mykel.
"Yes, I believe so, and they're out there," Mykel nodded his head as he looked at the sky. "(You can't change the game, and so you added a new feature to help them, huh?)" Mykel thought.
"If that's the case, don't we who believe in God should also have something like this somewhere?" The major asked Mykel, and he looked excited and anxious.
"Do you think so? I think the God that you believe in won't allow anyone to see him," Mykel said as he looked at the major. "Your God is something else," Mykel continued as he walked past the major.
(At the temporary White House)
"What's going on? First, there's a demon circle that is enough to stir the whole world, and now you said there's a door that connects our world to God's world?! What's the meaning of this!" Richard asked as he rubbed his nose bridge and leaned on his chair.
"Sir, I think you want to see this," Russel said as he turned on the TV.
Richard looked at the TV and his jaw dropped when he saw the door in Egypt open. "My God, is that an Egyptian God?" Richard asked as he slowly stood up and looked at the screen with his eyes wide open.
